Cisco IOS Source Code Stolen
http://tinyurl.com/3ep5e
"A Russian security site is reporting that the source code for the Cisco IOS 12.3 Operating System was stolen. According to the report, some hackers compromised Cisco's corporate network and stole at least 800MB of source code."
I'm not worried about a worm exploiting this and spreading from router to router. I'm worried about a DoS tool that exploits something discovered in the source code. And a tool like that that brings all the routers down. A script kiddie DoS tool.
Any thoughs?
